This Art Kills Fascists
from Kunst Please Hosted by Jonathan Heath
John Heartfield has been described as “the greatest political artist and graphic designer of the twentieth century.” Throughout the thirties his anti-fascist imagery ran rampant throughout Berlin, much to the displeasure of the Nazis who forced him to flee Germany. His work was always biting and often hilarious, and his impact on contemporary culture is undeniable. Kunst Please is a micro-dose of modern art history. Tune in every fortnight for an exploration into the more unexpected side of modern art, featuring stories of the famous and the infamous, the weird and the wonderful, the unheard, the cult, the criminally overlooked and the criminally insane. Created and produced by Jonathan Heath. Follow the gallery space on Instagram @kunstplease
